Cryptocurrency: What would be a fair price for a bitcoin?

How Much is a Bitcoin Worth? How is the value calculated?

As explained by Francis Pouliot, Co-founder, Research and Cryptoassets at Catallaxy: “It provides a certain independence with regard to the risks generated by the central banks’ policies. This is a secure, open source technology that is audited in real time. A transaction can’t be removed or prevented.”

Don’t forget about taxes

Our Partner Louis Roy advises: “Don’t forget that returns on cryptocurrency are taxable. If you haven’t already done so, now’s the time to ensure your bookkeeping is accurate to avoid issues with the tax authorities.” Keeping supporting documents will be even more important as exchange platforms don’t provide you with forms like the banks and brokers do.

Women in Business: The Situation in 2018

March 8th was International Women’s Day, but how have women truly progressed in business?

A Grant Thornton International study, Women in business: beyond policy to progress reports that while the number of businesses with at least one woman on their senior leadership team has significantly increased, the proportion of senior roles held by women has marginally declined. As a result, businesses are missing out on the benefits of true diversity—critical at a time when every sector is facing disruption.

Emilio B. Imbriglio, President and CEO stated: “The participation of women and their talent in business is critical and should be an integral part of corporate culture. By working together and on an equal footing, not only will women and men collaborate better, they will also unlock their full potential for individual and collective growth. Society as a whole will come out a winner.”

Enhancing and promoting the role of women

The Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton Women of Talent committee was created in 2012 for the purpose of enhancing the standing of the women in our organization and promoting their roles and responsibilities. We invite you to read seven inspiring portraits of Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton women, that was published on March 8th in connection with International Women’s Day.

Guy Fauteux stated: “This recognition is the result of work I’ve always been passionate about. Since the very start of my career, I’ve always been motivated by the success of my clients and colleagues. Being an accountant means being engaged in our communities and showcasing the profession through our involvement. I plan on being a proud ambassador of the profession for many years to come.”

Gilles Henley said: “I’m very pleased to receive this distinction, but I won’t stop here. Passing on my knowledge and advising colleagues are what I thrive on. I will continue to tactfully and diligently share my expertise with the practitioners I support. I’m also very proud of my involvement to advance our profession. Over the years, in my work with CPA Canada and the Ordre des CPA, I have had the opportunity to work on major issues with a wide variety of colleagues. It’s very rewarding.”

Emilio B. Imbriglio, President and CEO of Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton, added: “I extend my warmest congratulations to Guy and Gilles on receiving this well-deserved honour. They have made a remarkable contribution to the profession and the firm. We are privileged to have such high calibre colleagues to advise our clients and professionals. Thank you for promoting our profession and contributing your outstanding talent to our mutual success.”
